Respected Web Development Firm Discusses the Latest Styles in Popular Ecommerce Website Design

08/28/2009

New York website design firm says that following shifts in popular ecommerce development can help businesses get a jump on their competitors.

Online PR News – 28-August-2009 – New York, New York – “If you want to play with the big boys, be like the big boys,” says Peter Crisafi, Vice President of dzine it, Inc., a Manhattan-based website development company that specializes in ecommerce web development for clients around the world.

According to Crisafi, the best way to stay one step ahead of your competition is to look for popular trends in website design practices and mimic them.

Crisafi would know. He and the professional website development staff at dzine it, keep a constant eye on what is hot in the website design industry and they bring that information back to their clients who recognize the need to keep up with popular trends.

At dzine it, Crisafi says the development staff has been noticing a couple of recent trends that can be beneficial not only to ecommerce businesses, but to any business looking to add a bit of spice to its website.

“One of the hottest trends in web development is the addition of slideshows,” says Crisafi. “Although slide shows have been a part of large corporate websites for quite some time, they have become increasingly popular among small business sites.”

The beauty of a slideshow, according to Crisafi, is that it allows a site to offer lots of visual content without loading up a page, the way a traditional photo gallery might.

Similar to the use of slideshows is the addition of Flash. According to Crisafi, dzine it encourages the use of Adobe Flash to its clients because it is an easy way to bring a professional, visually stimulating look to websites of any size.

“When it comes to stepping up to the plate, particularly for websites that feature an ecommerce application, the addition of Flash video and slide shows can really give you an edge over your competitors,” said Crisafi, “and the cost of adding these features to a website is more affordable than most people think.”
